Does a metal roof attract lightning during Tampa's frequent summer thunderstorms?

No. Metal roofing does not attract lightning; lightning strikes the highest point in a geographic area regardless of material. Furthermore, because metal is non-combustible (Class A fire rated), it safely disperses electrical energy without igniting.

Are metal roofs loud inside the home during heavy Tampa downpours?

When installed over solid plywood decking with high-density synthetic underlayment and standard attic insulation, a standing seam metal roof produces no more interior sound than conventional asphalt shingles.
